Stop Them Before They Come In – Retail Theft Prevention

Retail theft prevention is about tools to stop shoplifting, more specifically, it is about prevention once a shoplifter enters your store.

I recently read an article that said approximately one in three shoplifters will steal again. It is very surprising that so many shoplifters will continue their path of theft even after an apprehension.

After reading this article, I came to realize it is not simply a matter of using something like Checkpoint security systems to alert you and your employees to potential shoplifters in your store. It is really about making your store less than desirable for a shoplifter to even enter your store.

If you can, try to take those tools another step further. Put anti-shoplifting signs on your doors saying shoplifters will be prosecuted, for example. How about having a sign that says you monitor the premises through electronic and remote surveillance? That would help further the impression that the store is monitored by someone who may or may not be visible in the store.

Even having some signage that signifies you use Checkpoint security systems (compared to an off brand or off name system) can be retail theft prevention in and of itself.
